LONDON: American officers gave the wrong coordinates to their Pakistani counterparts as they sought clearance for the air strike that killed 24 friendly troops last weekend, UK'sThe Telegraphreported.
The report said: "A senior Pakistani military officer told The Sunday Telegraph that a border co-ordination unit - established to avoid exactly this sort of tragedy - was given incorrect details of a suspected Taliban position".

"The strike had begun before we realised the target was a border post," he said. "The Americans say we gave them clearance but they gave us the wrong information."

The co-ordinates had been checked with a Pakistani officer to ensure there were no friendly troops in the area, the pilots believed, and the Apache attack helicopters and lone AC-130 gunship had been given the go-ahead to unload their deadly payload on the mountainside.

"But as dawn arrived it became clear that a terrible mistake had been made. Twenty-four Pakistani soldiers lay dead, their border posts were a smoking ruin and a crucial alliance had been poisoned."
